Gita is an autonomous robot that can carry up to 40 lbs. It has an 8-hour battery life when moving at a walking speed, but it has a maximum speed of 22 MPH. It will soon began B2B pilot programs with an eye on future consumer applications.

At Piaggio Fast Forward we are pioneering our concept of 'Autonomy for Humans'. An intelligent and efficient idea designed to liberate people who are moving in urban city spaces every day. As the first in a series of machines, we now introduce Gita a mobile-carrier that follows active people on the go carrying up to 44 pounds. Gita encourages a mobile lifestyle for anyone who want to move with ease, from millennials and parents to seniors and disabled individuals; it’s your answer for getting out the door without grabbing for your car keys. PFF seeks to promote walkable, livable, vibrant communities filled with enhanced transportation options that enrich the lives of everyone.

PFF - introducing GITA

Published on Feb 3, 2017

At Piaggio Fast Forward we are pioneering our concept of 'Autonomy for Humans'. An intelligent and efficient idea designed to liberate people who are moving in urban city spaces every day. As the first in a series of machines, we now introduce GITA, a 26 inch tall lightweight vehicle that can carry up to 40 lbs.; its name means 'short journey' in Italian. GITA is able either to navigate high-density urban spaces while following people or to move autonomously along pathways that it has already traveled. It's an everyday assistant designed to help people walk, run, pedal and skate their way more freely and productively through life.

Where others see self-driving cars and driverless panel vans, we at Piaggio Fast Forward imagine cities filled with people and land-drones. We solve the complicated puzzle of urban space at the granular rather than the automotive scale. By applying today's navigation technologies to nimble, lightweight vehicles navigating sidewalks and narrow streets, we bring back the joy of walking and riding freely to urban cityscapes.
